Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of new energy industry, and specifically to an ultrathin antimony oxide nanobelt and a preparation method and application thereof, and uses the antimony oxide nanobelt as an anode material to prepare a high-efficiency sodium ion battery. Background Art

[0002] Unlike lithium-ion batteries, graphite's inert properties for sodium storage limit its sodium storage capacity, which severely restricts its application in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) (Y. Wen, K. He, Y.Zhu, F. Han, Y. Xu, I. Matsuda, Y. Ishii, J. Cumings, C. Wang, Expandedgraphite as superior anode for sodium-ion batteries, Nature Communications ,2014, 5(4033). Therefore, it is crucial to explore suitable anode materials to promote the commercialization of SIBs. Among the various SIBs anode materials reported, antimony oxide (Sb2O3) has been widely used due to its relatively low cost, environmental friendliness, and ultra-high sodiumation rate (13.5 nm∙s −1 ) and over 1100 mAh∙g based on conversion alloy mechanisms −1Due to its inherent high theoretical capacity and other advantages, it stands out as a competitive candidate material (Y. Zheng, Z. Zhang, W. Liu, Y. Wu, X. Fu, L. Li, J. Su,Y. Gao, Investigations on the Electrochemical and Mechanical Properties of Sb2O3 Nanobelts by In Situ Transmission Electron Microscopy, Small Methods,2022, 6(3): e2101416; J. Fei, Y. Cui, J. Li, Z. Xu, J. Yang, R. Wang, Y.Cheng, J. Hang, A flexible Sb2O3 / carbon cloth composite as a free-standing high performance anode for sodium ion batteries, Chem. Commun., 2017, 53(98):13165-13167.). However, similar to other metal oxides, the poor rate capability and cyclability of Sb2O3 due to volume expansion during the salting / desalting process greatly limit the practical application of Sb2O3-based anode materials (MV Reddy, GV Subba Rao, BV Chowdari, Metal oxides and oxysalts as anode materials for Li ion batteries, Chem. Rev., 2013, 113(7): 5364-5457.).

[0003] Considering the anisotropic properties of crystalline anode materials, the volume changes observed during cycling also exhibit anisotropic behavior. Therefore, the design of low-dimensional crystalline materials is expected to be used to reduce the negative impact of volume expansion. For example, Lin et al. developed a double-zigzag Sb2O3 microbelt with a width of 800 nm, a thickness of 250 nm, and a length of several microns for use as anode materials for sodium-ion batteries (Z. Li, D. Fang, W. Zhang, J. Tian, ​​S. Chen, J. Liang , N. Lin,Y. Qian, Revealing Quasi-1D Volume Expansion in Na- / K-Ion Battery Anodes: ACase Study of Sb2O3 Microbelts, CCS Chem., 2020, 2:1306-1315. The results show that when the current density is 0.05 A∙g −1 The discharge capacity of these microstrips after 50 cycles was 470 mAh∙g −1. In addition, the Sb2O3 microbelts undergo significant volume expansion along the

[100] direction perpendicular to the ribbon plane. Based on this inspiration, minimizing the thickness of the microbelts can effectively reduce the crystal plane in the

[100] direction and increase the specific surface area of ​​the active material. This strategy has important application potential in further improving the cycling stability and charge-discharge capacity of Sb2O3. However, there are currently limited reports on the preparation of Sb2O3 nanobelts, and the commonly used methods can be roughly divided into two categories. One category includes chemical vapor deposition (N. Pradeep, V.Chaitra, V. Uma, AN Grace, Antimony oxide nanobelts: synthesis by chemicalvapour deposition and its characterisation, Int. J. Nanotechnol., 2017, 14(9-11): 752-761.). Sb2O3 nanobelts produced by this technology usually have high purity and excellent crystallinity, but they usually require temperatures exceeding 500 °C and have relatively low yields, making them unsuitable for large-scale applications. Other methods include hydrothermal methods using antimony salts or antimony powders as the main raw materials [L. Li, YX Zhang, XS Fang, TY Zhai, MYLiao, HQ Wang, GH Li, Y. Koide, Y. Bando, D. Golberg, Sb2O3 nanobeltnetworks for excellent visible-light-range photodetectors, Nanotechnology ,2011, 22(16): 165704; ZT Deng, D. Chen, FQ Tang, J. Ren, AJ Muscat,Synthesis and Purple-Blue Emission of Antimony Trioxide Single-CrystallineNanobelts with Elliptical Cross Section, Nano Res., 2009, 2(2): 151-160.] Among these methods, hydrothermal synthesis, which directly utilizes antimony powder as an antimony source, is simpler and more efficient. However, these methods often require large amounts of surfactants, such as polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), ethylenediamine (EDA), and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), which not only increases production costs but also has unpredictable effects on the inherent properties of the material. Therefore, achieving efficient preparation of ultrathin Sb2O3 nanobelts remains a major challenge. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art and provides a method for preparing ultrathin antimony oxide nanobelts. A simple and efficient hydrothermal method is used to prepare orthorhombic phase ultrathin Sb2O3 nanobelts.

The preparation method of the present invention is green and environmentally friendly, simple and easy to operate, and can greatly reduce the preparation cost. The prepared Sb2O3 nanobelts have the characteristics of high quality, ultrathinness, good dispersibility, high yield, and high degree of oxidation, so as to overcome the technical defects of the prior art methods such as relatively poor quality of Sb2O3 nanobelt samples, high cost of the preparation method, and environmental pollution.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a method for preparing ultrathin antimony oxide nanoribbons, comprising the following steps:

[0010] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, in step (1), the mass volume ratio of the antimony powder aqueous solution is 0.5-1.5 g / L; the point ultrasonication step is: ultrasonication for 2-5 hours in an ice bath environment, the ultrasonic wave is output in the form of a pulse lasting 2 seconds every 4 seconds, and the ultrasonic power is 400-600 W, to obtain an aqueous solution containing antimony powder particles with a diameter of 3-20 nm.

[0011] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, it is characterized in that in step (1), the antimony powder is first ground with a ball mill, and after the grinding is completed, the antimony powder is dispersed in deionized water to obtain an aqueous solution containing small-sized antimony powder particles, and the grinding conditions are: using a zirconia grinding jar and ball milling balls, which are composed of grinding balls with a particle size of 5 mm and grinding balls with a particle size of 3 mm, and the ratio of the two is 1:1, the ball mill speed is 900-1100 rpm, and the grinding is 30-60 min.

[0012] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, the mass volume ratio of the diluted aqueous solution containing small-sized antimony particles or antimony quantum dots in step (2) is 0.25-0.75 g / L; the conditions of the hydrothermal synthesis reaction are: hydrothermal temperature 60-90 ° C, reaction time 1-3 h.

[0013] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, the conditions for water bath ultrasonic stripping are: the water bath temperature is room temperature, the ultrasonic power is 100-200 W, and the ultrasonic time is 1-3 h.

[0014] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, the operations of stepwise centrifugation and freeze-drying in step (4) are as follows:

[0015] S1. Centrifuge the aqueous solution containing ultrathin Sb2O3 nanobelts at 3000 rpm for 5 min and collect the supernatant I;

[0016] S2, centrifuging the supernatant I obtained in step S1 at 6000 rpm for 20 min to obtain precipitate I and supernatant II;

[0017] S3. Re-dispersing the precipitate I obtained in step S2 in deionized water, and freeze-drying the precipitate to obtain an ultrathin Sb2O3 nanobelt powder material.

[0018] The present invention also provides an ultrathin antimony oxide nanobelt obtained by the above preparation method.

[0019] As a further limitation of the technical solution of the present invention, the length of the Sb2O3 nanoribbon exceeds 10 μm, the width is 170-500 nm, and the thickness is 30-40 nm.

[0020] In addition, the present invention also provides the use of the ultrathin antimony oxide nanobelt in preparing anode materials for sodium ion batteries.

[0021] As a further limitation of the above application, the preparation method of the sodium ion battery anode material is as follows: ultrathin Sb2O3 nanobelt powder material, conductive carbon black (Super P) and carboxymethyl cellulose are mixed in a mass ratio of 7:2:1, and deionized water is added to prepare it into a slurry and coated on copper foil, and then the coated copper foil is dried in a vacuum oven at 80°C for 12 hours, and then cut into electrode sheets with a diameter of 12 mm.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

This is then purified by centrifugation to obtain an aqueous solution of Sb2O3 nanobelts of a specific size and thickness. The ultrathin Sb2O3 nanobelt powder is then collected through freeze-drying.

[0037] (2) The aqueous solution containing antimony quantum dots of about 5 nm in size prepared in step (1) was diluted with deionized water to 0.5 g / L; and then a hydrothermal synthesis reaction was carried out under normal pressure and vigorous stirring. The specific steps were as follows: the hydrothermal temperature was 80 °C and the reaction time was 2 h, to obtain an aqueous solution containing Sb2O3 nanobelt aggregates;
